Chapter 246: Wind Disaster (II)

The storm lasted for two days and two nights, and then it gradually subsided, and the wind outside had not stopped, but people went out of the gate against the wind, at least it was not overturned and blown away. The sun peeked out of the dense clouds, and the common people began to walk out into the streets with their children and old, picking up objects that had been blown away by the strong wind.

Perhaps the preparatory work of Lou Yi is in place, although the streets of Guangzhou City are depressed, the houses have collapsed, and the roads are muddy and mottled, but in the end the casualties are not serious, rough statistics, no one has died for the time being, and there are many injured, and even some people have been seriously injured.

However, in the slightly remote places outside the city and in the sea, the fishing boats that did not have time to take refuge when the hurricane hit the river at sea suffered a catastrophe, and some fishermen even preferred the boat to be destroyed and killed rather than leave with the rescuers, and the boat simply died. In this case, there is no good way to rescue, at that time, even their own lives are shaking in the wind and rain, so they have to be stunned and taken away, and if they can save one more, they can save one more, and if they can't take it away, they can only resign themselves to fate.

After the disaster passed, the prefect's yamen was bedridden and unable to work because the prefect suddenly fell seriously ill, and there was no movement, Xiaoru believed that he was really sick, because the famous doctors in Guangzhou City were invited to see a doctor, and even the Lou family came, but Xiaoru was too busy, and I heard that there were more than a dozen doctors who went, so I didn't follow to join in the fun. Later, I heard a familiar doctor say that the prefect of Naqu may have been frightened, caught a cold, and had a cold, because the rescue was not timely, the cold invaded the lungs, and when they went to see it, it was already very serious.

After Xiaoru listened, she snorted twice, this is the so-called scourge for thousands of years, now so many people have died of wind and cold, but this one has such a big life, of course, she is a doctor, so that she will not curse others to die, but he is sick, and he can't find anyone to take over for a while, and when he was in office, he suppressed his colleagues very much, even if all he could leave was wine bags and rice bags, he was not a capable official, and the operation of the yamen was not very convenient, so long after the disaster, they had not come up with a disaster relief plan, they could afford it, The common people can't afford to wait, and some big families in the city with deep heritage have automatically started to open porridge sheds on the ground and put rice porridge for free.

However, the imperial court was not slow to react, almost within three hours after the warship could go to sea, the navy of Fuzhou was ordered to come to the rescue, most of the people who fell into the water on the river and the sea were rescued, and those floating corpses were also salvaged, but they were afraid that there would be a plague after the disaster, I am afraid that they would be burned in a centralized manner, and it was also after this incident, Xiao Ru only appeared in the navy of the Great Xia Dynasty was very similar, although there were no firearms such as artillery on the warship, but weapons such as heavy crossbows were very complete, and the army was also well-trained, not worse than the army on 6. In this era, I am afraid that even if you can't say that you dominate the sea, but defend the country's waters, it is absolutely no problem.

The front gate of the official residence of the political envoy was blown away, the outer wall also collapsed, and a few large stones fell to block the road, showing a little depression, but fortunately, the inner courtyard was very strong, and nothing major happened, Xiao Ru simply set up a medical center in the front yard, and several doctors near the Compassion Medical Association all braved the wind and rain to rush over, and for a while, the chaos in Guangzhou City gradually subsided.

"Madam, the old lady is ...... today" Xiao Ru was busy all morning, rubbed her waist and walked into the house, drank a bowl of tea with Xiaoyan's hand, took hot water and twisted the handkerchief, wiped her face fiercely, and was thinking about resting, when she saw Meng Nier walking in worriedly, and said hesitantly, "The old lady is going out to worship God today...... He said that he wanted to ask the dragon king to bless the old man with peace and sound......"

Xiao Ru's brain suddenly hurt, her lips squirmed, and she murmured with a wry smile: "It's not to ask the Dragon King to bless you, but to ask God to bless the 'Dragon King'." ”

Just five days ago, although the wind and rain have not stopped, but there is nothing to do in the yamen for the time being, even if you want to rescue the disaster, you have to wait until the wind and rain stop, since you are idle, Lou Yi ran home that night against the wind and rain, Xiaoru saw that although he was gray-headed, full of scum, and he had lost a lot of weight, but he was not missing arms and legs, so he breathed a sigh of relief and put back a heart in his throat, but he didn't expect that in the middle of the night, a black-clothed and masked guy suddenly appeared and broke into the building at night, Let the keeper of the gate obediently bite off the hand bone.

Xiaoru didn't think much about it at the time, more than a year, their family has encountered this kind of thing several times, when she was in the village at the beginning, Xiaoru was still frightened, scared so much that she didn't dare to sleep at night, and her mother-in-law hugged the quilt and gossiped all night, now it's solid, they broke into them, anyway, there are fierce beasts guarding the door, those people can't get in at all, they don't even have to show their faces, those who dare to break into the house are the so-called dead soldiers, it's useless to catch them, they make murder in vain, just let the obedient people at home leave a little mark, Throw it out and finish it.

It's just that the turmoil has subsided recently, and the assassins are still coming, which is a bit strange, so Lou Yi simply went out to have a look, Xiaoru hugged the quilt and went to sleep, but unfortunately, she didn't sleep in porcelain, so she let her father-in-law pull it up......

After a long time, this time it was not an assassin, it was a messenger, Xiaoru sat on the side obediently, took some bacon and fed it to it, and was not very happy to eat it, but the meat stored at home is not much now, and I don't know how long it will be supported, of course, I have to save a little food, let Menier help the guy who was trembling with fear to connect the bones, and secretly rolled her eyes, you say, this is not self-inflicted? Since you came to deliver the letter, you won't knock on the door openly, and besides, if you wear such a black outfit, who will see that you should not be arrested by an assassin?

She complained in her heart, but the heart of the person who sent the letter was also uncomfortable, such a big wind and rain, she worked hard to deliver the letter, but the front yard because the gate collapsed, there was no one, the gate in the backyard was closed tightly, the sealed one was strong, knocked for a long time, maybe because the wind and rain were too loud, the inside could not be heard, there was no movement at all, he walked so far away, cold and hungry, no way, this is over the wall, who would have thought, just jumped in, there was a tiger did not even say hello, and pounced on it all of a sudden......

After Lou Yi finished reading the letter, his face became ugly for a moment, and let Xiaoru go back to the house to continue sleeping, he talked with the messenger behind closed doors for several hours, and then went out before dawn, and there has been no news until now.

The old lady only knew that Lou Yi had official business, but Xiao Ru knew that Lou Yi had gone to sea, when Lou Yi had a secret conversation with the messenger, although Xiao Ru was not there, their conversation couldn't hide her, but, after listening to those words, Xiao Ru twitched the corners of her mouth, and sighed that the world is really a family of soldiers and bandits, who have been on the sea for many years. Dragon King', is actually the old man's eight worship friends, although they said very vaguely, but Xiao Ru guess can also guess, this dragon king, I am afraid that it is the role arranged by His Majesty the emperor today, don't think about the specific relationship first, anyway, the dragon king has an accident, when the typhoon came, he was at sea, although he got Lou Yi's message, he immediately returned, but unfortunately, the time was too late, or encountered a storm, the ship was destroyed, and the people were fine, but they were trapped on the island not far from Qiongzhou, the dragon king signaled, and the people he stayed on 6 had no choice, so he had to take the risk and run to Lou's house for help。

"Ma'am?"

“…… Yes...... I'm going to see my mother. Xiaoru was pushed by Meng Nier, came back to her senses, Lou Yi had no news for several days, he was also very worried, it seems that he has to think of a way, but at least he has to wait for another day or two, until the wind and rain completely dissipate, and the weather clears before he can act, looking for people at sea, others can't, but he has no problem.
